Ink will simply rub off or smudge.Some suggested uses for Red River UltraPro Gloss 2.0 Premium Photo Inkjet Paper:

High quality photo prints

Photo books

Photo books have become very popular. Gloss paper is a good choice for single side page photo books. Photobase inkjet paper like UltraPro Gloss 2.0 withstands handling well and will work well for photo book projects of all sizes.

Portfolios

If you're portfolio contains high contrast black & white, deeply saturated commercial images, or work from a recent photo adventure, consider high gloss paper for your printing needs. Again, its ability to withstand handling makes UltraPro Gloss 2.0 a great candidate for the project.

The best way to familiarize yourself with various glossy paper is to try them by purchasing a small quantity. A good idea is to print something from each genre of your photo library to see how the media represents your work.
